Course: Side Dish

Ingredients

▢ 300 g sausages, chopped
▢ 100 g white breadcrumbs (about 4 slices)
▢ 1 medium onion chopped
▢ 1 tbsp dried sage
▢ salt and pepper

Instructions

Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Cook the stuffing as you wish: stuff a bird, cook in a dish or make little balls the size of ping pong balls, as in the pictures here.
Oven temperature will depend on what you are roasting it with but a rough guide will be 200 ̊C (400 ̊F).
If you are making stuffing balls, cook them for 20 – 30 minutes, depending on what’s in the oven at the same time and therefore, the oven temperature. I do mine for 20 minutes at 200 ̊C (400 ̊F).
If you are using a dish, you will need a loaf tin that measures about 20 cm x 10 cm (8” x 4”). Grease the tin with a little olive oil.
Pack the stuffing in neatly and bake, uncovered, for 35 – 40 minutes at 200 ̊C (400 ̊F).
If stuffing a bird, just cook your bird as usual and make sure that the middle of the stuffing is cooked through.
Serve alongside your roast as usual, if cooked separately.
